Honda Lease Deals September 2026: Every Model Ranked

Honda took a point of residual off most of the lineup and left the rates alone. One model went the other way.

QuoteDefender Team ·

Honda took a point of residual off most of the lineup and left the rates alone. The Civic, CR-V and Passport all lease for $7 to $14 more a month than they did in August, and not one of them got a rate change to cushion it. Nothing in the lineup carries a dollar of lease cash.

The Pilot is the only thing that got cheaper. Honda cut its money factor from 0.0019 to 0.0017 (4.56% to 4.08% APR), which more than covers the residual point it also lost, so every Pilot is $3 to $4 a month less. The worst of it is the Civic Type R at +$20, which took a rate increase and a residual cut together. The Accord, Odyssey, Ridgeline and HR-V did not move at all.

The Whole Lineup, Cheapest First

The Civic Sedan LX at ~$354 is the cheapest Honda lease, and the Prologue Elite at ~$854 is the most expensive. Model groups run cheapest first, and trims run cheapest first inside each group.

The Cash column is not a mistake. Honda is running no lease cash on any trim, the same as August. Every payment here comes from rate and residual alone.

*Pre-tax, 36mo/12K miles, Northeast region. Cap cost = MSRP, no lease cash available, no down payment and no dealer discount. Residual applied to MSRP. A dash in the last column means the trim was not in the August data, so there is no month-over-month comparison to make. It does not mean the trim is new. Data: American Honda Finance, September 2026.

Verdict: September Honda

A worse month almost everywhere, by a small amount. If you were quoted a Civic, CR-V or Passport in August and the dealer still honors it, take that number. If you want a Pilot, September is the better month. Everything else is August again.

These tables are one configuration.

36 months, 12,000 miles, Northeast. Your term, mileage, and state move the payment. Get your exact number, free.

What These Payments Actually Are

Every payment above is calculated at full MSRP, nothing down, before tax. No dealer discount, no trade, no fees. They are a ceiling, not a target. Nobody should pay these numbers and plenty of people will pay less.

Use them as a measuring stick. Put your dealer's quote next to the row here, and the gap tells you how much discount and how much markup are in the deal. A quote above this number on the same term and mileage means something was added that the program does not require.

The conversion you need

$1,000 off the selling price is about $30 a month at 36 months. Run it in reverse on any quote: the difference between your number and the row above, divided by 30, is roughly the discount the dealer already gave you, in thousands.

Three things move a real quote away from this baseline. A discount pulls it down, and that is the only one that saves you money. Money down pulls it down too, but you already paid it, so the payment looks better while the total does not change. Tax and fees push it up, by $0 to well over $100 a month depending on your state. A New Jersey lease and a Texas lease on the same Civic are not the same payment.

Verdict: Read these as ceilings

Paying less than the table means a discount is working. Paying more on the same term and mileage means you should ask what was added. With Honda running no lease cash, a marked up money factor is the likeliest answer.

Civic, CR-V and Passport: A Point of Residual, Quietly

Honda cut one point of residual across the Civic, CR-V and Passport lines and changed nothing else. No rate move, no cash. The Civic Sedan LX goes from ~$347 to ~$354. The CR-V EX AWD goes from ~$505 to ~$515. The Passport TrailSport Elite Blackout goes from ~$800 to ~$814.

The size of the hit scales with the sticker, which is why the Passport takes $12 to $14 and the Civic takes $7 to $9. A point of residual on a $55,300 Passport is about $553 of extra depreciation over the lease. On a $25,890 Civic it is $259.

The Civic Si and Type R took it worse because they also took a rate increase, from 0.0028 to 0.0029 (6.72% to 6.96% APR). The Si is $13 a month more and the Type R is $20, the biggest single move in the Honda lineup this month. The Type R still holds the highest residual Honda publishes at 71%, which is the only reason a $48,590 hatchback leases near a $43,195 Prelude.

August to September Change

Civic +$7 to +$9, CR-V and CR-V Hybrid +$9 to +$11, Passport +$12 to +$14, all from one point of residual. Civic Si +$13 and Type R +$20, which add a rate increase on top.

Verdict: Civic, CR-V, Passport

Still the sensible Hondas, just costing a few dollars more to say so. The Civic Sedan LX at ~$354 is the cheapest lease Honda offers and the CR-V LX 2WD at ~$470 is the volume pick. Skip the Type R as a lease at ~$632; buy that one or wait for a rate that is not 6.96%.

Pilot: The Only Model That Got Cheaper

Honda cut the Pilot money factor from 0.0019 to 0.0017, or 4.56% to 4.08% APR. The Pilot lost the same residual point as everything else, and the rate cut more than covered it, so all nine trims come out $3 to $4 a month cheaper.

The Sport 2WD at ~$584 is the entry, and the Black Edition AWD at ~$755 is the top. That is a three-row family SUV leasing below the CR-V Hybrid Sport Touring, which tells you where Honda wants volume this month.

Pilot: August to September Change

Every trim $3 to $4 a month cheaper. Sport 2WD ~$587 to ~$584, Elite AWD ~$738 to ~$735, Black Edition AWD ~$758 to ~$755. The money factor did the work.

Verdict: Pilot

The pick of the month, and the only Honda where waiting paid off. The EX-L 2WD at ~$603 is the value trim, $19 a month over the Sport for leather and a power tailgate. Skip the TrailSport at ~$680 unless you actually go off road; it is $77 a month over the EX-L for hardware most buyers never use.

Prologue: The Cheapest Rate, The Worst Residual

The Prologue carries the lowest money factor Honda is running at 0.0006 (1.44% APR), cut this month from 0.00074. It still got more expensive, by $3 a month, because it lost a residual point like everything else and the rate cut was too small to cover it.

The problem with the Prologue is not the rate, it is the residual. The Elite AWD holds 44%, the lowest in the Honda lineup by a wide margin, against 63% for a CR-V EX. That is why a $51,995 electric SUV leases for ~$854 while a $55,190 Pilot Elite leases for ~$735. You are paying for the depreciation the residual admits to.

Verdict: Prologue

A cheap rate cannot rescue a 44% residual. The EX 2WD at ~$647 is the only Prologue that makes sense, and it still costs more than a better-equipped Pilot. Lease this one only if you want the electric car specifically, and get real money off the selling price first.

What Held: Accord, Odyssey, Ridgeline, HR-V

Seventeen trims are unchanged from August. The Accord LX at ~$418 and the Accord Hybrid Sport at ~$492 both held, which makes the Accord the steadiest sedan lease Honda runs. The 2027 HR-V held too, with the LX at ~$374 matching the Civic Sedan Sport for the second-cheapest lease Honda runs.

The Ridgeline is the quiet one worth knowing about. It carries 0.00131 (3.14% APR), the best rate on any non-electric Honda, and it did not change. The Sport at ~$547 leases within ten dollars of a CR-V Hybrid Sport-L. The Odyssey held as well on 0.00164 (3.94% APR), with the EX-L at ~$597.

Verdict: The unchanged half

Nothing moved, so nothing changed about the advice. The Ridgeline Sport at ~$547 on a 3.14% rate is the most underrated lease in the lineup, and the Accord LX at ~$418 is the sedan to beat. An August quote on any of these is still live.

Zero Lease Cash, Again

Honda is putting no lease cash on any trim in the September program, the same as August. Not the Civic, not the CR-V, not even the Prologue, which is the one place most brands are spending money right now.

That makes the negotiation simple and the markup test important. Honda's rates run from 0.0006 on the Prologue to 0.0029 on the Civic Si, Type R and Prelude, so there is no single number to check against. Ask which rate applies to your car, get it in writing, and price the car separately.

The markup test

Honda groups its rates by model, not by trim, so every Pilot is 0.0017, every Civic is 0.00208, every CR-V is 0.00244 and every Ridgeline is 0.00131. If two trims of the same model come back at different money factors, one of them is marked up.

Verdict: Negotiating a Honda

Fight on price, because there are no incentives to fight over. Confirm the money factor in writing, check it against the other trims of the same model, then work the selling price. Every $1,000 off is about $30 a month.

39 Months Is Free on Some Hondas, Not All

Honda returned nine lease terms this month: 24, 27, 30, 33, 36, 39, 42, 45 and 48 months. On 25 of the 63 priced trims the 39-month residual is identical to the 36-month residual, which makes 39 months a lower payment for nothing. On the other 38 it costs two points.

The Civic, CR-V and Odyssey are in the free group. The Pilot and Prologue are not. Past that, 42 months is where the ladder breaks on everything: the Civic Sedan LX holds 63% at both 36 and 39 months, then drops to 59% at 42.

Trim36mo39mo42mo48mo
Civic Sedan LX63%63%59%55%
CR-V EX AWD63%63%59%55%
Pilot Sport 2WD62%60%58%54%
Prologue EX AWD47%45%42%37%

Residual percentages at 12K miles/year, Northeast region. The pull also returned 24, 27, 30, 33 and 45 month terms. Data: American Honda Finance, September 2026.

Verdict: Ask for 36 and 39

Get both quoted side by side. On a Civic, CR-V or Odyssey the residual is identical at 39 months, so it is a lower payment for nothing. On a Pilot or Prologue it costs two points and may not be worth it. Do not let the conversation drift to 42 on any Honda.

Payment Math & Assumptions

All monthly payments in this post are pre-tax estimates based on a 36-month term, 12,000 miles per year, and the Northeast region program. Cap cost = MSRP, because Honda is running no non-conditional lease cash this month. No down payment, no dealer discount, no trade. Residual is applied to MSRP per the program sheet. Conditional money such as loyalty, military and college grad is excluded because not everyone qualifies.

Fifteen trims in the table show a dash rather than a month-over-month figure. Those are trims the August data did not cover, mostly front-wheel-drive variants of the CR-V and Passport, so there is no honest comparison to print. They are not new models. Seventeen trims that Honda does lease in September are left out entirely because they have no confirmed sticker price yet, all of them 2027 CR-V, CR-V Hybrid, Odyssey and Prelude.

Tax, registration, title, acquisition and dealer doc fees are excluded and vary by state. Rates and residuals are region-specific, so a Northeast number is not a California number.
